LLSS 24.5 vs 30.5 August 19, 2020 11:49AM
LLSS what’s everyone’s thoughts 24.5 vs 30.5? I’ve seen both what’s the better way to go?

It all depends on the condition of the track that you are pulling on.

On the average a 30.5 does the best but as John said it depends on the track 10 ply pullers are the most wanted but are hard to come by and the new tires out are really starting to come on strong

If you'd like, give me a call at 402-840-0244. We have seen success in this class on both sizes of our tires, and I may be able to help point you in the right direction. Seems like different parts of the country go with something a little different.

Thanks!

This may be dumb question but why don’t they allow 20.8s in LLSS and wouldn’t a narrower tire give you more lbs per inch on the tire itself to lock it in to the track surface?

Re: LLSS 24.5 vs 30.5 August 21, 2020 06:17AM
No a 20.8 would not.

I’m only curious because last year I saw a 6500lb open class in which several LLSS guys were competing in get spanked by a guy with 18.4s.

Re: LLSS 24.5 vs 30.5 August 21, 2020 09:14AM
18.4 is smaller footprint. 20.8 is not

Re: LLSS 24.5 vs 30.5 August 21, 2020 10:39AM
If the 18.4’s worked good the 20’s would have too. As stated above, track conditions and different soil types have a large affect on which tire size will be best. Wheel speed is also a big factor along with the cut. Lots more to it than just the size

Re: LLSS 24.5 vs 30.5 August 21, 2020 12:00PM
I Guess the 20.8 have to big of a circumference just as a 42 to be legal

Are you talking about Wooster last year?
